Hot Dog Sudoku
(Published on 18. July 2020, 16:30 by Carrick22)
Normal Sudoku rules apply : Each row, column and 3x3 region must contain the digits 1-9 once.
Digits on thermometers must increase from the bulb (round end) to the flat end.
Furthermore, numbers outside the grid indicates the sum of the digits placed between the 1 and the 9 in that row/column.
However, outside clues are present only when the sandwich is a hot dog. A hot dog is a sandwich in which (tongue twister!) all digits form a thermometer from the 1 to the 9 included. All unlabelled sandwiches do not follow that rule.
You can use Penpa-edit for solving it on your browser.
Solution code: Row A (8th) and row B (9th), left to right.

Mal einfach formuliert: Wenn die Zahlen von 1 bis 9 in einer Zeile/Spalte aufsteigend sind, steht ausserhalb ein Sandwich-Hinweis, sonst nicht.

To be crystal clear, a hot dog is a sandwich where you can trace a thermometer from its 1 (bulb) to its 9 (tip) and have valid numbers between them that sum to the indicated total. The thermometer in the grid is not necessarily part of a hot dog. So 14789 is a hot dog (and so is 98741), while 18749 is not (is not a thermometer).

Ich verstehe es nicht. Es gibt nur ein Thermometer 1 bis 9. Was ist gemeint?

For the new solvers here (that may have seen me through my CTC featured puzzle), i'm a lazy constructor that usually makes easy puzzles (>3* is really not my range in terms of setting puzzles). If I ever overcome the laziness, puzzles will appear on here too : https://www.reddit.com/r/CarricksPuzzles/ (I promise I'll get back on here too)
